Recently found, bought, and restored this 1968 vintage Yamaha snare drum. Stamped "68" inside the shell. Last thing I need to do is find the top of the handle of the throw off to complete it.

Yep, the wrap is a bona-fide winner. Right out of the 50's. I love it.

Too many great drums to list here!

I've sent you an email Luke but for anyone else looking in the future (I think the missing handle will be a common problem as they are not held on by much) here is a pic of my original Yamaha lever with a Star one on the left. They are a bit different and the thread is different but nothing that couldn't be modified. The Star ones are common on other stencil snares and will be easier to find.

Good luck
